Old README described the original React/Fabric.js UI and listed
"No local GPU inference" as a non-goal. Updated to reflect:
- miniPaint-based editor with SAM brush selection
- GPU quick-start (nvidia-container-toolkit prereqs, docker-compose.gpu.yml)
- Cloud API quick-start
- GPU tier auto-selection table (FLUX/SDXL/SD by VRAM)
- Full feature list (selection actions, print tools, progress bars)
- Correct clone URL and update commands
- Troubleshooting section

This commit implements a full-stack AI photo editing application that
allows users to regenerate only selected areas of images using AI.
Features implemented:
- Frontend (React + Fabric.js):
* Interactive canvas with selection tools (rectangle, ellipse, lasso)
* Real-time selection preview and editing
* Mode toggle (A: patch only, B: patch + context)
* Feather slider for edge blending (0-50px)
* Prompt input for AI instructions
* Edit history viewer with revert capability
* Responsive UI with dark theme
- Backend (FastAPI):
* RESTful API for projects and edits
* SQLite database for metadata storage
* Image processing pipeline with PIL/OpenCV
* AI provider interface (pluggable)
* Support for OpenAI, Stability AI, and mock providers
* Feathered alpha blending for smooth compositing
* Complete edit history tracking
* File-based storage for images and edits
- Image Processing:
* Patch extraction from bounding boxes
* Mask generation for all selection types
* Feathered edge blending
* Patch compositing back to full image
* No pixels modified outside selection
* All edits reversible
- Infrastructure:
* Docker Compose orchestration
* Production and development configurations
* Nginx reverse proxy for frontend
* Hot-reload support for development
* Volume persistence for data
Architecture follows specification exactly:
- Only selected regions are regenerated
- Full image pixels preserved outside mask
- Two-mode operation (cost vs quality)
- Complete edit history and reversibility
- Self-hosted with external AI API calls
All components are fully functional and ready for deployment.
